Conservative and sustainable soil management in vineyards is an approach of primary
importance not only for the yield (tons per hectare) and grapes' quality (primary and …

Zeolites, a group of minerals with unique properties, have been known for more than 250
years. However, it was the development of methods for hydrothermal synthesis of zeolites …

Economic and nature-friendly amendments are needed to increase fertilizer efficiency and
crop yield for sustainable agriculture in coarse-textured soil. In this investigation, the effects …

Minimizing ammonia volatilization (AV) in paddy fields can not only reduce nitrogen (N) loss
but also prevent environmental pollution. While clinoptilolite has been shown to effectively …

Sustained tillage and continual applications of phytopharmaceutical and fertilizers using
heavy machineries frequently give rise to soil erosion, loss of soil organic matter (SOM) and …

Zeolite (Z) has been widely used for improving rice production, but there is a lack of
information on how nitrogen (N) accumulation and translocation affect yield performance of …

The mechanical strength and fertility retention capacity of vegetation concrete (VC) are
insufficient when prepared using sandy soil. Biochar (BC) has been used to improve the …

This work started as a joint academia and company research project with the aim of finding
new applications for domestically sourced volcanic products and related waste (pumice …

Sandy soils usually have low nutrient retention capabilities. Leaching of macronutrients
applied as fertilizers can initiate eutrophication of natural waters which puts the health of …

Reducing the effects of climate change is a key-point to achieve sustainable development. It
